Hi Herold,  
Welcome to the forum!  
Normally - unless I have something misunderstood about your case - you can use the ui\_audio node (which is part of the dashboard node set) for this. [Here](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/playing-mp3-audio/8188/16) is more information. Although pauzing is _ **not** _ possible this way (see [here](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/node-red-dashboard-audio-wish/4798/20))...
